Why does no one ever mention a hammer or screwdrivers? Ain’t they basic enough???
You don’t need a hammer at all?
You forgot the hammer in your list.
great video
As a woodworker and Carpenter I can honestly say that in the shop I almost never ever use a block plane. Or anything but my jack for that matter. But on a job site I I find myself using a block plane pretty much daily.
They sell chisels at Aldi?!
A lot of the links no longer work or are unavailable.
Great list.
Only thing i disagree on is clamps
Buy clamps whenever you get a chance because you never have enough of the damn things, amd ypu wont realise until youre at a critical juncture of the job youre doing or dont have the cash available
He not cool
Hi I built the side table and I am happy the way it turned out. Thank u hope u will do more like that I injoy your show IAM 72 starting using just hand tool only and I injoy it please respond
The thing that I would have liked in this video is him going into more detail about each tool.
Your approach to woodworking and your approach to telling the time… quite the contrast!
Hi James what is a good begginers hand wood saw to buy sir
Hi James,
Just wondering when it comes to hand saws which would you suggest a rip or cross cut?
Good list. For my money I would go for a Record 044 rather than the Stanley 45. It’s a simpler tool, not as versatile maybe, but easier to set up and use. Cheap too. I love using my 044, but the 45 rarely comes out of the box.
I would have thought you made those classic clamps
Some tips from sweden.
Bahco makes exelent saws. Their superior line is actually worth the money
Hultafors makes high quality modern folding rulers with both inches and cm
Excellent advice, and the best part is that you start with sharpening. A sharpening solution must necessarily be part of your very first tool kit: it’s just no fun when your tools aren’t sharp. Well done for including it at the very top.
I disagree with one thing: a square should be there on the first day, too. And another remark: I have two proper straight edges (24" and 50") and I use them all the time. I think something that is reliably flat or straight should be part of the kit fairly early on.
mix sawdust with epoxy glue and put in the handle it works like a charm for falling of handles
As always thank you for your practical advice!
Mmm, maybe add a Stanley #7?
"I paid $12 for my tools"
Did you also pay 5¢ for a Burger? JK! If you are tht old you are looking great
I got a lot of my tools ftom Rob Cosman, they’re worth the price. Great Quality and Practical.
I am amazed and humbled by someone like you not being a tool snob and providing great solid advice. Thank you for drumming sense into my head who had an hour ago bought yet another stanley sweetheart plane that looked prettier (just canceled the order, am going to be content with my no 4). Thank you and God bless. Regards from Pakistan
My dad’s advice, which has served me well: "When you are buying a tool for the first time, DON’T buy the expensive tools. Also, stay away from the cheapest tools, but buy something inexpensive. If you wear it out that means it’s a tool you use with some frequency so you should replace it with something of much better quality. Otherwise, it’s likely just a tool that’s sitting on a shelf."
I found a couple antique deep cut coping/fret saws for less than $10 last year. I was so excited.
I don’t get the sandpaper with glass thing. How do you use that?
Had a coworker once in the 80s that used my 3/8 chisel as a screwdriver…. I didn’t kill him, but he never touched my tools agaim…
Great video. Thanks 😊🙏
Great video, this is a very comprehensive list of tools to get started. I like the fact you threw in some options. Ie. the use of high grit sandpaper vs the high $$ diamond stone.
People like to have options especially getting started. Cost can prohibit people from enjoying the craft.
Agree with the part when you say buy them when you need them. A set of screwdrivers is basic as well even to setup your plane. Although if you are going to do woodworking you might already have those.
I have a old school drill, hand-cranked, is that a supplement for a bit brace?
Buy your tools at a car boot or junk sale. Chisels are cheap and easy to restore to extreme sharpness. Saws will need sharpening (NOT the hardpoint type)buy a small file for sharpening also at junk sales. Also junior hacksaw tiny fine blade great for tiny clean cuts.
Great video for beginners!
The intro alone got you a like.
Could i use my old rubber mallet? I see many videos about wood mallets but idk which is better or if it matters.
First and only marking knife was made from an old spade bit and cut off grinding wheel
Always great advice James sir
I like how how quite alot of these hand tools already I have a brace planes,a variety of spoke shaves, calipers, Compasses ect. All of which are in dire need of restoration they about 150 years and belonged to my great grandfather who was a shipwright in barrow and Furness. I also have a Japanese pull saw that my friend gave me. My first project will be a new handle for the brace and probably a shave horse
I decided I wanted to find a hand plane first than anything else since it’s been one of the harder tools to find, but today I bought an old brace for $10. It’s handles are a bit banged up but it works perfectly fine. I can’t wait to find a hand plane and the rest of the tools. 🙂
I found a vintage set of Irwin auger bits with good spurs and lead screws in box with original paperwork
Harbour freight are not a decent set of chisels.
I’m fact they are absolute trash.
No jointer plane?
Thank you!
im here because of online school .-.
Thankyou!!!!!!!!!!
I wish i have those tools dude
I’m just getting into woodworking, so sorry if this is obvious and I just don’t know. Is a small axe or adze not pretty important? I want to make bowls and I’ve seen them done basically only using these tools. I was considering using them too.
where can i find easy projects to start as a beginner?
